Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the tasks of the Chair under Article 74?

Article 74(1) gives the Chair three tasks:

  • to convene the meetings of the Board and prepare its agenda;
  • to notify decisions adopted by the Board pursuant to Article 65 to the lead supervisory authority and the supervisory authorities concerned;
  • to ensure the timely performance of the tasks of the Board, in particular in relation to the consistency mechanism referred to in Article 63.
Who is notified of decisions the Board adopts under Article 65?
The Chair notifies decisions adopted by the Board pursuant to Article 65 to the lead supervisory authority and to the supervisory authorities concerned. Article 74 places this notification among the Chair's own tasks, not those of the Board as a whole.
How are tasks divided between the Chair and the deputy chairs?
Article 74(2) leaves that to the Board itself: the allocation of tasks between the Chair and the deputy chairs is laid down in the Board's rules of procedure. The article does not fix the split, it only says where that allocation must be set out.
